Once you decide you would like to rent a property we will ask you to pay an application fee of £100.00 and complete our Tenancy Application Form. The application fee covers administration costs and is not returnable, even if an application fails. The Tenancy Application form asks for bank, employment, personal and current landlord (if applicable) details and other relevant personal information. It authorises us to make enquiries to verify the information provided, to request references and to conduct a credit check with a credit reference agency. (You can view or download a copy of the Tenancy Application Form here.)

Once your application has been satisfactorily assessed we will prepare a formal Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement and contact you to arrange signing. (The full text of the tenancy agreement can be viewed here.) Payment of the security deposit and first month's rent will be requested on signing of the Tenancy Agreement (due in cleared funds before start of tenancy).

At the start of your tenancy we will prepare an inventory and condition schedule (a written record of the contents and condition of the property when you move in) and agree its accuracy with you on the day you take possession. 

If you wish to renew your tenancy on expiry there will be no charge for a new tenancy agreement. Our policy for renewing tenants is to review the rent annually (so there will be no change to rent on your first renewal). On annual rent reviews we may adjust the rent to reflect current market rent for similar properties.

At the end of your tenancy the property will inspected and your security deposit returned within seven days of vacation. A cleaning charge of £100 may be deducted if the property is not left clean and tidy, and a further reasonable deduction will be charged for any damage or missing items discovered.
